We dredged the series of tubes for you: here's today's roundup of link love.

--APPLE: Microsoft takes a swipe at Apple's "I'm a Mac" ads (Engadget)

--GAMING: Major League Gaming gets $25 million funding (PaidContent)

--MEDIA: Amanda Congdon's webcasts are real, and they're spectacular (Gawker)

--DIGITAL HOME: Intel's Viiv low on holiday shopping lists (CNET News.com)**

--APPLE: Defend your MacBook with iSight (CrunchGear)

--NEWS: Boston transit system bans M-rated game ads (Joystiq)

** Krazit, thanks for clarifying the pronunciation of "Viiv." This whole time I'd been thinking it was said "veeeeev." Maybe Viiv would be doing better if it went along with proper 21st-century linguistic standards and allowed the "ii" to be pronounced correctly, you know, like in "Wii."

Wow, I've been mispronouncing "vivacious"

my whole life. Totally thought that was a short "i" sound in there. Or maybe it's a regional peculiarity?
